Boston, MA, April 07, 2017 -- Big Table Publishing Co. has announced the release of BARACK VS. THE ANTI-PC: Laying the Groundwork for a 2016 Donald Trump Presidential Run, by Tom Ersin. Donald Trump often avers that he is anti-PC, against political correctness. But PC is simply the avoidance of terms and descriptions (and policies) that are discriminatory toward certain groups of people. His war on PC is a defense for the continued use of offensive, bigoted language (and policies) with apparent impunity. Vehemently opposing political correctness gives him a red anti-PC herring to hide behind.

Mr. Trump did not rise to the presidency on his good looks (or manners). The Republican Party made a deal with Beelzebub after Barack Obama’s 2008 election. In return for tea party support of anti-Obama obstructionism, the GOP looked the other way and gave tacit approval to race-baiting and xenophobia. The colossal mendacity (I saw Cat on a Hot Tin Roof) and lack of critical thinking was astonishing. The Donald saw his opening, and Republican leaders ultimately lost their influence. Forget tacitness (that’s a real word – we looked it up). Trump openly cheered the rampant intolerant nativism and anti-PC sentiment. The GOP base cheered him back, and he took over their party.

Barack vs. the Anti-PC is a humorously serious, chronological commentary of articles and essays interspersed with quotes and headlines. Most of these were published originally in the author’s magazine during Obama’s first term and second campaign. The book lays out the gradual loss of Republican leaders’ control over their own party. By not denouncing the bigotry and misinformation, they unwittingly told their people anything goes. Donald Trump heard that message loud and clear. To its shock, the GOP establishment has now reaped what it has sown. Barack vs. the Anti-PC documents that sowing.

Reviews
“A presentation of behind-the-scenes events most Americans are probably not aware of … literate, breezy, easy to understand and absorb … a sense of humor …”
Robert Hilliard, Ph.D., playwright, author of Phillipa and The Greener Trees

copies to friends.”
Bob O’Brien, L.L.P. (shrink)
